Odd Future Show in Boston Shut Down by Police

Following Tuesday night's Odd Future show in New York City where Earl Sweatshirt made his live debut, the group performed on Wednesday night at the House of Blues in Boston. But the show was ended abruptly by the police, apparently after a crew member was arrested outside the venue. Check out footage of how the show ended, as well as Tyler's explanation.

"We wanted to finish [the show] but the owner of the club made us turn it off and the police are right there," Tyler begins to explain. The venue then cuts his mic and stage lights, ending the show to boos from the crowd. (Thanks to reader Ben Stas for the video.)

Getting shut down in Boston is becoming a little bit of an Odd Future tradition. The group's May 2011 in-store at Newbury Comics was one of their first high-profile bust-ups, allegedly causing "near-riots" and the minor "hurting" of a police officer. Do yourself a favor and rewatch this classic report from the local news station, in which an interview with Hodgy Beats inadvertently becomes a straight-laced Fox reporter's career high.
